Par TOMASI HENRI. Composed in 1949 by Henri Tomasi, Complainte Du Jeune Indien is a piece for Clarinet and Piano accompaniment. This piece voices the lament of a young Indian, expressing nostalgia. It is quite sad with an Andante tempo and the harmonic motion is quite slow. Two cadenzas feature in this work, with the possibility to cut them out to make rehearsals easier. The piece finishes sadly o…

Par JOSEF STOIBER FRANZ. This edition clarifies a performance aspect of Haydn’s Symphony in G major that has long been misunderstood: in m. 1 of the second movement (Largo) the viola, violoncello and several wind instrument parts are marked “solo”, indicating that they play important motifs or themes and ought to stand out. Contrary to other editions, the “solo” marking in the violoncello should n…

Par HESKETH KENNETH. In Danceries , by Kenneth Hesketh, the melodies themselves are a mixture of old and new. Where the old occurs it has been adapted in mood and composition and is often interspersed with completely new material.
